Chapter Ninety-One: Battle in the Mist

Enveloped in the fog, Chen Jing had almost completely lost all control over the outside world and could only rely on his hearing to assess the situation.

He heard gunshots, incantations, sounds of battle, shouts, and footsteps—a cacophony of noises surrounding his ears.

And there's the sound of my own heartbeat.

Chen Jing ran quickly through the fog, mainly to make noise and attract the maggots to attack him, thus indirectly protecting Zhang Taoying.

However, running also carries risks. One could be ambushed by maggots that are barely moving and whose sounds are concealed, and Chen Jing's reaction distance is only about the width of a sword.

This is dancing on the edge of a knife!

But Chen Jing dared to do this because he had something to rely on. First, he was a Blood Realm cultivator, and his basic physical qualities were slightly better than these maggots. Second, and most importantly, these two awakened maggots had no weapons.

Without weapons, they can only rely on their fists to attack. Maggots cannot use their feet because they have no feet, which makes their attack range very short.

From the previous battles, Chen Jing discovered that the maggots' speed was not slowed down because they had no legs. On the contrary, the maggots moved quite nimbly. Of course, Chen Jing suspected that this was due to the blessing from that angel.

If a Qi Realm warrior can greatly enhance their soldiers, then perhaps that angel could also enhance their maggots.

Maintaining his focus, Chen Jing ran quickly. Suddenly, a white figure leaped out of the mist.

The maggot-like creature suddenly jumped up and charged towards Chen Jing.

This greatly offset its disadvantage of not having weapons!

Meanwhile, another maggot-like creature emerged from the fog, blocking Chen Jing's dodge route. The maggot-like creature stared intently at Chen Jing, waiting for him to dodge the first maggot-like creature's attack before launching its own fierce assault.

Then, Chen Jing disappeared.

Shadow Cloak!

The maggot-like creature that pounced landed on the ground and missed its target, while the other maggot-like creature, unable to see Chen Jing's dodge direction, was unable to move for a moment.

Then, the thin white tube connecting the maggot-man's back to the maggot-man carpet on the ground was severed by a sword, revealing Chen Jing's figure.

Using his Assassin's Eye, Chen Jing discovered that the maggots' weakness was the thin tubes on their backs.

Chen Jing looked at the remaining maggot, slowly raised his left hand to raise the revolver, aimed at the blurry maggot in the fog, and slightly curved the corners of his mouth.

The maggot-like creature immediately rolled to the side to dodge, trying to hide in the deeper fog. With this quick dodge, the white tubes on its back seemed to provide some pulling force.

However, the next moment, Chen Jing disappeared again in the eyes of the maggot-like man.

Chen Jing reappeared in the direction the maggots were dodging.

Chen Jing's aiming with his gun was merely an illusion created by a small illusion technique, intended to conceal the Shadow Step he was about to unleash!

Shadow Step takes time to activate and allows for short-distance teleportation in shadowy areas. While the teleportation speed is not as fast as running, it is undeniably sudden once completed!

Chen Jing never intended to use a pistol to attack the maggot man from the beginning. Bullets are not fatal to maggots, and due to the fog, Chen Jing had no confidence in hitting the maggot man and was even worried about accidentally injuring his teammates.

On the contrary, the fog and the dim lighting here provided the perfect environment for Shadow Step, and the long time required for Shadow Step was also satisfied because Chen Jing began to prepare the moment Shadow Cloak ended!

After completing the Shadow Step, Chen Jing teleported to the side of the maggot and swung his sword directly at the thin white tube that was closely connected to its back.

Cut it off!

Another maggot-infested person fell to the ground.

"Zhang Taoying, dispel the fog!" Chen Jing shouted immediately, "They're all dead!"

The fog dissipated as quickly as it appeared. Chen Jing rapidly surveyed the surrounding battle situation, his mind tense to the extreme, ready to dodge attacks at any moment.

As the fog dissipated, Chen Jing discovered that he was facing not the direction of the angels, but the rear of the battlefield.

Although He Lili was caught in the crossfire between the two maggots and had no chance to retaliate, she relied on her extremely skillful, tightrope-walking dodging techniques to avoid all attacks, even though she couldn't find any opportunity to counterattack.

Judging from the scorching wounds on the maggot-infested body, He Lili even found an opportunity to fight back during this period.

Chen Jing didn't look closely and quickly turned around.

Dao Nan had already killed the maggots that had fought him, and Li Aidan had also dealt with the other two maggots. Now he was tearing open the throat of the last maggot with his claws, but Li Aidan had suffered more injuries and was bleeding all over his body. In addition, the honey badger spirit summoned by Zhang Taoying was also on its last breath and could hardly move.

Li Si still couldn't turn the maggot-like corpse into a zombie. She and the angel were locked in a magical battle, vying for control of the corpse!

As the fog dissipated, Li Ai and Dao Nan flanked the angel from the left and right. A phantom image appeared before the angel once more.

Even while vying for control with Li Si, it still had the energy to unleash other spells!

The painting depicts Zhang Taoying performing her magic, with a spirit honey badger extending its claws from the image, gradually transforming from illusion to reality.

The illusory roar echoed through the space.

"Disrupt it, interrupt its spell!" Li Si manipulated the corpse while defending against the attacks of the white tubes. He was too weak to move and could only give verbal commands.

After reloading the magazine, Donan raised his revolver and fired a burst of shots at the angel.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The bullets struck the angel, but were deflected by the air armor, hitting only the wooden stakes, the floor, and the walls.

Li Ai tried to rush over, but the angel used several white tubes, whips, or thorns to force her to stay away from the angel and engage in close combat. She could only roll and dodge.

Chen Jing took out the last palm thunderbolt, poured in spiritual power, and the runes on it crackled!
